I have noticed that many song lyrics end a phrase with the words "e kung." For example, the song 4:30 by Hidebo Sugiyama says "e kau a di ousuchiis e kung." I have been informed that this usage of kung/ku is different from the predictive form (ousuchiis kung = about to avoid the person), where ku/kung directly follows the verb that it modifies. In this usage, it is like the speaker is agreeing with his thought that he just expressed. It is just an expression. Like in English saying “you don’t like me, yeah?” ke kora di ousuchiis e kung = you are running away, huh? I don't see this documented anywhere and wonder if others have an opinion on it.
